Exciting right?. Let’s get started.

I will briefly explain the following, before I dive into the procedures:

What are NFTs?

NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) are assets in the digital world that can be bought and sold like other pieces of property. They are being stored on the blockchain like Ethereum, Polygon, etc., they can be in form of Artworks, Gaming, Music, etc.

When an asset is said to be fungible. it means that its units can be readily interchanged – e.g money. With money, you can swap a $20 note for two $10 notes and it will have the same value.

However, if something is non-fungible, this is not possible – it means it has unique properties so it can’t be interchanged with something else.
